BLEEDING HEART CONSERVATIVES: The Daily Standard has published my review of Jackass 2, a film of profound signifiance.

The WaPo film critic actually wrote that there is no "significant moral difference" between the Jackass crew and "dedicated ballerinas who damage their feet in the highfalutin interests of art." Hmmm. I'm not so sure about that. But what I can say for sure is that ballerina won't make you laugh so hard that your stomach hurts.

Anon, I agree that Jackass' obsession with the male anatomy seems fairly homoerotic, but I would hardly call the film a celebration of gay culture. Its more like ballplayers who constantly scratch their packages and pat each other on the behind.
